Kerosene Lyrics by Shae Altered

Ghosts EP

Feel like I’m gonna explode

Feel like I’m gonna explode

I got kerosene
It’s burning in my veins
I got cyanide
It dances in my brain
I’m trapped in a cage
And I’m afraid of myself
Feel like I’m gonna explode
Feel like I’m gonna explode
Feel like I’m gonna ex-
